Pentagon to Send Troops, Air Defense Systems to Saudi Arabia and the UAE

So this is how President Trump is getting the U.S. out of the Middle East quagmire---by sending more equipment and troops to the area.

The U.S. is preparing to deploy troops to the Middle East as a response to what officials have deemed an Iran-based attack on Saudi Arabian oil fields last week, Defense Secretary Mark Esper told reporters Friday in a Pentagon briefing.


“This is the first step we’re taking with regard to responding to these attacks,” Esper said, not ruling out further escalation.

This escalation is exactly the wrong thing to do. It will not stop the attacks and now more U.S. troops will be in harm's way.

Trump should simply order all U.S. troops out of the region.

  2. Now that Trump has allowed himself to become the bitch of Israel and Saudi Arabia, I will likely support Tulsi in the miraculous event she gets the nomination.
